===Moves===
<hr>
'''Leadership'''<br>
When you have to order your war-band to advance, regroup, hold position, hold discipline, or put their damned backs into it, roll+hard.<br>
On a hit, they do it. On a 10+, they snap to: take +1forward. On a miss, they do it, but you’ll hear about it from them later.

<hr>
'''Wealth'''<br>
When your stronghold is secure and your rule unchallenged, at the beginning of the session, roll+hard. <br>
On a 10+, you have plenty at hand and available for the needs of the session. <br>
On a 7-9, you have plenty, but choose 1 want. <br>
On a miss, or if your stronghold is compromised or your rule contested, your hold is in want. <br>

The precise values of your plenty and want depend upon the details of your stronghold.

<hr>
'''Strongholder Special'''<br>
If you and another character have sex, you can give the other character gifts worth 1 keep, at no cost to you.

===Stronghold & War-band===
*plenty: 4
*wants: hunger, strangers, idleness, reprisals, disease, savagery
*war-band: 20 warriors, 8 war-camels, 3 harm, 2 armor, drilled against archers<br><br>

*families: 50–75 souls, who survive by farming and hunting - goatherding, dates, lemons, almonds, and some olives (plenty: 1 keep, want: hunger)
*protections: simple ditches, fences, and low fieldstone walls (walls: 2x)
*war-band: around 20 warriors, with an armory of mixed and makeshift weapons and simple armor (2 harm, 1 armor, choose 1 drill)
*stables: camels for 8 warriors, plus pack animals (fast=0, strong+2, hungry=0, size 5, stubborn)<br><br>

*My stronghold defends a busy market crossroad (plenty: +1 keep, want: strangers) - the Source draws many to it
*My subjects include skilled tradespeople (plenty: +1 keep, want: idleness) - where else would they congregate in these ravaged lands?
*My subjects are uncivilized and rude in their habits (want: disease) - they are refugees, and stability has been long in coming
*My war-band engages in lucrative raiding (plenty: +1 keep, want: reprisals) - I must keep them appeased
*My war-band’s armory is well-stocked and maintained (+1 harm, +1 armor) - the Empire supplied us well
*My war-band is a pack of bloody hyenas (want: savagery) - they do not yet see the value of settling, of calling one place home

==Notes==
===Goals===
*assure my subjects that they shall prosper under me
*build infrastructure to raise the standard of living
*prepare by building my library of maps and histories
*protect the Source from harm
